About this blog

Do you feel like your job isn't quite right for you, but uncertain what would suit you better?

Career change is just one of those places in life where people get stuck, trapped between an unwanted present and an uncertain future.

I was in this position myself, but eventually left my career in management consultancy to retrain as an occupational psychologist. One of my specialisms is now helping people get 'unstuck' and to find their best career direction.


This blog is for those who are asking questions about their working lives. I never claim to eliminate the anxiety of career change, but I do help people find meaning and purpose in their lives, which can make those worries worthwhile.
